The first five chapters offer a detailed examination of the various body systems. The next two chapters focus on exercise testing and training principles, as well as training adaptations as they relate to aerobic power, anaerobic power, range of motion, and resistance training of healthy individuals and competitive athletes. The remaining chapters focus on a variety of topics, including athletic performance, body composition and weight management, and environmental influences of exercise physiology. The final two chapters bring a unique perspective to the book with a review of the relationship between exercise physiology and public health and a look at recent and emerging topics in the field, including genomics and pharmacology.

Enhancing the content are learning aids, more than 140 images and illustrations, and practical examples from among clinical patients, healthy individuals, and competitive athletes. Key terms and their definitions appear at the end of each chapter; these help students understand key concepts and serve as a useful reference for practitioners. The appendixes contain information related to topics such as efficiency and energy expenditure, metabolic equivalent (MET) values of common activities, and the professionalization of exercise physiology.

For instructors, Advanced Exercise Physiology also includes a test package and an image bank to assist with classroom lecture preparations. The ancillaries, in-text learning components, and comprehensive content combine to create an ideal text to be used in advanced courses in exercise physiology.

About the Author

Jonathan K. Ehrman, PhD, FACSM, FAACVPR, is the associate program
director of preventive cardiology and of the Exercise Physiology Core
Laboratory and the director of the clinical weight management program at
Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Michigan. He specializes in cardiac
rehabilitation and preventive cardiology. He is also a clinical
assistant professor in the exercise science program at Oakland
University. He is a fellow of the American Association of Cardiovascular
and Pulmonary Rehabilitation (AACVPR) and the American College of Sports
Medicine (ACSM), and he is certified by the ACSM as a clinical exercise
physiologist. In addition to the ACSM and AACVPR, he is also an active
member of the Clinical Exercise Physiology Association (CEPA), the
American Heart Association, and the American College of Cardiology. Dr.
Ehrman earned his PhD in clinical exercise physiology from The Ohio
State University.

Dr. Ehrman is a coeditor of Clinical Exercise Physiology, Fourth
Edition, and served as section editor of the 10th edition of ACSM's
Resource Manual for Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription.
In addition, he has published more than 100 research manuscripts,
abstracts, and book chapters. He is also the current editor of the Journal
of Clinical Exercise Physiology, which is the official journal of
the CEPA.

Dennis J. Kerrigan, PhD, FACSM, is a senior exercise physiologist
in preventive cardiology in the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine and
the William Clay Ford Center for Athletic Medicine at Henry Ford
Hospital in Detroit, Michigan. His current role is as the director of
outpatient exercise programs in preventive cardiology, and he oversees
exercise programs for individuals with chronic health conditions. In
addition to his clinical duties, Dr. Kerrigan also conducts research in
patients with heart disease, cancer, and obesity. He was the lead author
in a randomized trial that showed improvements in fitness and quality of
life in patients with left ventricular assist devices who participated
in cardiac rehabilitation. In 2017, Dr. Kerrigan was elected president
of the Clinical Exercise Physiology Association (CEPA). He earned his
PhD in clinical exercise physiology from The Ohio State University.

Dr. Kerrigan coauthored a book chapter in Guidelines for Cardiac
Rehabilitation and Secondary Prevention Programs, Fifth Edition, and
has published scholarly articles in peer-reviewed journals, including
the Journal of Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation and Prevention,
American Journal of Cardiology, Journal of Cardiac Failure, and Medicine
in Sports and Exercise. In 2012, he received the Midwest ACSM
Clinical Exercise Professional of the Year award.

Steven J. Keteyian, PhD, FACSM, is the director of preventive
cardiology in the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine and director of
the Exercise Physiology Core Laboratory, both at the Henry Ford Hospital
in Detroit. He specializes in clinical exercise physiology and
preventive cardiology. He also serves as a clinical professor in the
exercise science program at Oakland University and as an adjunct
professor in the physiology department at Wayne State University, where
he earned his PhD. He is an active member of the American Heart
Association and the American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary
Rehabilitation (AACVPR).

Dr. Keteyian has published more than 200 research manuscripts and book
chapters and has coauthored or coedited four textbooks, including Clinical
Exercise Physiology, Third Edition. He has also served as an
editor-in-chief, associate editor, or editorial board member for several
academic journals. Dr. Keteyian received the President's Award from the
AACVPR in 2013 and the Established Investigator Award from the AACVPR in
2009.

Physical Literacy on the Move was written to help educators of children and youths from grades K through 12 teach high-quality and fun games and activities that support the unique needs of their learners as they develop physical literacy.

Most coaching books start with a discussion of the importance of creating a coaching philosophy and follow up with a section on creating goals. But to define a coaching philosophy and set goals, you must first understand and express why you coach and what principles will guide how you coach.

"I don’t know, Mom, I just feel burned out." As a parent, what would you do if you heard this? We all have a vague understanding of burnout, but should we advise our kids to drop out, take a break, make some changes, or suck it up?
